[remote text message; traceable to Rykros]

[someday_divine]

It's not like text messages to the Nexus are exactly uncommon.

So it shouldn't be surprising when a terminal near the Sign suddenly flickers, flashes on, and words start scrolling across the screen.

"No... Zefie... Oh god..."
Faye lets out a small cry, and collapses to her knees, beginning to go into shock. It's as if something just... took a part of her away. While she wasn't in love with Zefie... she cared for her. Deeply.

[chiisana_tsuki]

Keyaki's passing by just in time to hear the cry, and immediately he knows something's wrong. He doesn't stop to see what it is; he just hurries to Faye's side and kneels next to her in concern, touching her shoulder, her face, and frowning at the way she's shaking.

She's clearly in no condition to be doing much right now, so he'll help her up and let her lean on him (he may be tiny, but he's surprisingly strong) as he guides her carefully to a non-LOL'd couch, letting her gently down onto it and fetching a blanket to wrap around her, all the while trying to think of better treatment for shock.

[alternate_faye]

Her shock eventually gives way to tears, and, well... Keyaki will have his hands full looking after her, especially once she starts clinging to the nearest person, ie, him.

[the_doomguy]

John's no stranger to this situation... Most of the undead soldiers he had to kill were his buddies.

Yes. And once before when the demons invaded Earth.

Not even sure his message will go though, he sends it anyway.

Grimly, he gives Lily and her comrades a salute. Dosn't matter if they'll see it or not.

He'd be helping Faye afterwards, but someone beat him to it.

[silenceandpsych]

"No..." Upon reading this, Gen drops to her knees in shock. "No no no Lily no!"

Psych, elsewhere, feels this through their spark bond. He punches the wall with a yell before running off to find his sister.

((Oh noes! They will always miss her! *wibbles* *sad ♥s*))

[pastwillhaunt]

And Dreadnought's there, the pieces of the wall he'd been helping to assemble falling around his feet as he strides toward his spark-mate and gathers her close, his optics and other sensors scanning for danger as he goes into alert mode.

He came so quickly that he left Two behind.

[silenceandpsych]

Gen clings to Dreadnought with a sob, and Psych appears, throwing his arms around her as well, holding back his own tears.

[pastwillhaunt]

Dreadnought shifts his grip so that Psych is being hugged too, letting both of them rest against his knees and chest as he kneels and tries to figure out what's wrong, rumbling in attempt to comfort Gen.

"No. Nononono." Ed finds himself sitting on the ground with no recollection of how he ended up there and hugging his knees.

[random_xtras]

-Ed?- Light hooves tap skittishly as Aidla trots over curiously.

[haganenomore]

It takes a moment for the fact that someone said his name to sink in. He looks up at Aidla.

"Hi Aidla," Ed says, sounding subdued.

[random_xtras]

-Something's wrong.- Her small hand goes out to touch his face as she frowns and twitches with concern.

[tf_atalanta]

"Oh Primus, no..." Ata finds herself staring in stunned disbelief at the news...

[random_xtras]

"Atalanta?" Ratchet pauses to look at the red femme, even though he's got to get home and deal with an explosion in Columbia's lab.

[tf_atalanta]

She's not nearly as affected as the others, as she barely got to know Zefie and Saku, but she's sad nonetheless. It's a feeling she's all too familiar with. "Two of my friends... they're gone."

[random_xtras]

Ratchet gives her a quick hug. "I wish I could stay a little longer, but my daughter just celebrated the Fourth of July with her lab."
